pressure force [′presh·ər ‚fȯrs]

(fluid mechanics)

The force due to differences of pressure within a fluid mass; the (vector) force per unit volume is equal to the pressure gradient -∇p, and the force per unit mass (specific force) is equal to the product of the volume force and the specific volume -α∇p.

(meteorology)

pressure-gradient force

Steam Cleaners Featuring High Pressure Levels by Lauren Zwiebel / Consumer news, advice, product reviews community We have a very wide range of tools for very heavy bending processes including tools for bending with a pressure force of up to 2,000 tonnes/meter -- as well as the experience," a company spokesman says. Schafer a reputed tool maker by Gulf Industry Has an adjustable print pressure force of 4-140N, programmable printing speeds of 10 to 99 mm/sec, and adjustable separation speed from 1 to 5 mm/s.
